Chart Topping Songs Posterised

In this excellent poster, Flowing Data statistician and visualiser Nathan Yau is charting the top Billboard’s top 100 songs from 1958 until 2014, and converting them into a series of pie charts – pie, line, bar, flow, you name it. While some of his work is straight forward – a vortex capturing the essence of “The Twist” – there are some quite interesting takes on, check out Ricky Martin’s “Macarena” and The Beatles’ “Hey Jude”.
